Unlucky lads, very spirited fightback
That must have been a fantastic game for neutrals.
First half, first 10 minutes, you created a couple of chances, then we completely took over the rest of the half, deservedly going in 2-0 up, in fact 4 or 5-0 would have been fairer!
Accy at times looked like a pub side and I was wondering at half time not if we would win, but how many we would score.
Second half you got an early goal, our arses fell out and you absolutely battered us! Unbelievable turnaround, but you just couldn't get that equaliser.
A tale of two halfs if ever I saw one, we should have had it wrapped up by half time, yet at full time I was scratching my head wondering how you didn't get a point.
Show that spirit for the rest of the season, and you'll be fine.

Same here.
I think if Blundell actually had a first touch the game would have been out of sight after 50 minutes (failed to bring two defense-splitting passes under control either side of half-time which would have invariably led to a goal).
Yet again I left the Arena on the back of 3 points feeling rather disappointed as we simply didn't grasp the chance to win comfortably and ended up living very dangerously at times.
We just don't do things easily here.

To be fair to Blundell on one occasion he suffered an awful bounce and the ball ricocheted onto his knee.

Should have got that second one though, would have been game over then.
Oh well, not to worry. Will take the 3 points.

Thats the last 2 sets of opposition supporters that have said that or similar.. Just need to turn these 'battling' defeats into wins and pronto as Ive noticed there is now a 5 point gap between us and Bury above us. Luckily for us Torquay, Macc and Wrexham are crap as well...

Now pulled back to 4 points, Bury are hurtling towards us fast.
Thay've managed 5 pts from last 11 games, (1 from last 5), and just given their manager a contract till end of 2009  .
